The GB left it up to the respective districts to "enforce" the ruling as they deemed necessary. More notifications will be forthcoming I am sure, however, some districts will not say much as it is not a big deal. JMHO

It depends on who you ask! Some say it will have little impact. Others, (of which I tend to agree) think it will have a measured (one which can be felt in the short term but will be overcome long term) effect. IMO how the two CA districts handle/enforce the recent GB ruling will greatly determine the overall effect. While the UPCI GB has stated that those who have left to join the WPF are not to be "placed under question" and are acceptable for fellowship, the WD IMO has displayed a more "hardline" approach, and this will alienate/embitter people on both sides of the issue.

The last word from Hazelwood (that's today) only about 200 have dropped out of UPCI, that's not an earth shattering number out of approx.9248 ministers listed in the directory. There has been a big rush of ministers getting their renewals in so they won't be dropped. That means there are still about 9,000 faithful left and growing all the time. UPCI may have it's problems but it's still the best there is.

Re: District Puts WPF on Notice
To be honest with you I don't think it will have much of an affect in Ca. So, far I think theres only one church in our section that has went WPF.

There are some sections/areas that will be effected more such as Northern CA.

Re: District Puts WPF on Notice
I attend church in Northern California I can see it affected the smaller sections. I believe that with the district split it may affect Northern California since it the sections are smaller.
